Protesting the Kinder Morgan pipeline, which will bring crude oil and refined petroleum from the oil sands in Alberta to Vancouver, British Columbia, presumably to be shipped to China. This will increase tanker traffic in and is a danger to our already threatened marine life in the Inside Passage, where two recent spills in two months have already occurred this year. An estimated 5,000 protesters joined the march, from the City Hall to the downtown library.

Protest flags outside the Hangaroa Hotel, Hanga Roa, Rapa Nui. Long term and sometimes violent agitation by a small group of Rapanui against the Hangaroa Hotel resulted, in 2020, in the renunciation of long term rights over it by its Chilean "owners". The protesters, it should be noted, insist that their campaign was not violent, but it was characterized by threatening imagery and behaviour, and an incident when a tour guide at the hotel was struck by a protester is reported.

Benjamin R. Tillman, post-reconstructionist governor (1890-1894) of South Carolina (and later U.S. Senator), is now roundly regarded as a virulent racist. He should not be honored with a statue. Take it down!!!

Every year, on the anniversary of the city's return to Chinese rule, pro-democracy protestors take part in huge, peaceful protests against what they see as the heavy-handed influence of the central government. Police said 98,600 people took part in the march, while organizers said 510,000 participated. Statisticians from the University of Hong Kong estimated the turnout as between 154,000 and 172,000.
Protests took place in Rochdale on Saturday 22 July 2017.
The Force worked to ensure the events took place safely and ensuring the right to protest while minimising any disruption to the local community.
Chief Superintendent Neil Evans, Borough Commander, said: “This has been a challenging day with hundreds of people attending Rochdale town centre for the protest.
“I understand that these events are very emotive and that tensions may run high when there are polarised views and counter-protests.
“However, we have worked jointly with Rochdale Council and the community to ensure the most effective way to facilitate and manage this protest in a balanced and safe manner.
“This has very much been a community focused operation aimed at reducing the impact of the protest on the normal lives of people in Rochdale.
“I would like also like to thank members of the community who have acted as mediators and helped the smooth running of today’s event.
“In order to ensure we could deliver a safe operation we deployed large numbers of police which meant another busy weekend for officers, who have worked long hours in challenging circumstances to look after our communities.
“It was pleasing to see that this protest did not stop the people of Rochdale from going about their normal activities.”

Hundreds of people turned up to hear Jeremy Corbyn speak at a rally opposing Tory plans to weaken trade unions.
The Labour leader received a rapturous welcome from the crowd on the steps of Cardiff Museum as they waved banners against UK Government cuts after a march through the city centre on Saturday afternoon.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has spoken out against plans to restrict public sector strikes following a protest march in Cardiff.
He accused the Tories of "taking away the most effective means of securing better pay and working conditions" with the Trade Union Bill.
Mr Corbyn said he was "proud" of the work unions did trying to create a "decent collective society".
Around 400 people took part in the march on Saturday.
The Labour leader did not march himself, but addressed campaigners when they returned to their starting point at the steps of the city's National Museum.
Speaking from the top of a fire engine, Mr Corbyn said: "We've been through some terrible struggles, such as the miners' strike in the 80s."
He said workers continued to struggle in different ways, and defended their right to strike.
On a sunny and rather chilly June afternoon, activists and protesters showed up near the front entrance of the Cook County Jail on California Avenue to call for the defunding of not only the police, "but the entirety of the carceral system that works to control, harm, and destroy Black and brown lives throughout Chicago and the entire country." The event was hosted by the Chicago Torture Justice Center and Black Lives Matter Chicago. After meeting in front of the entrance, well over 100 protesters on foot and most likely the same number in vehicles circled the correctional facility. Those walking loudly expressed their support for reforms to the justice system and for the inmates just behind the walls of the facility. The vocal expressions were supported by those in their vehicles blowing their horns as they took up the rear of the march and caravan.
